I hear it's said that one thing that separates the good and the great thespians (I wrote thespians) is the ability to show proper facial expressions and body language when others are performing their lines.

Conan! What are three great things in life?

To crush your enemies; to have them flee before you, and to hear the lamenations of their women.

Yep. I am trying to get into every play I possibaly can but I don't have a lot of time at the moment so I will (If we have it) be taking drama club and I am in Dramatic arts which you can only take once. Phoo! Stinking school!

Well, with the current cultural climate, when you get out of college and you go out and people say "So what do you do?" and you say "I'm an actor", that pretty much means "I'm a stuck-up, arrogant, self-involved ass who's behind on my rent and credit card payments and I won't go lower than my metaphorical job limit and just get a gig hopping tables for some cash". Sad to say, but true. Same with musicians, only with them it's "I'm a desperate-for-cash person who didn't listen to my common sense and I am behind on my rent and credit card payments, can you give me a gig? Just any gig? Like, at your birthday party, or something, man?"

See with me I wouldn't say I am an actor, I would say, "I am in the film industry." I can wait tables just to get on my feet I dont mind. Beats fileingin an insurance company. Actually I have always wanted to wait tables. Just for a side job.
